23 to 25 February 2025, at BolognaFiere, the 4th edition of Slow Wine Fair, the international fair of good, clean, and fair wine

From Sunday 23 to Tuesday 25 February 2025, the Slow Wine Fair, the only international fair dedicated to good, clean and fair wine, returns to BolognaFiere for the 4^th edition. 

Organised by BolognaFiere with the artistic direction of Slow Food, the Slow Wine Fair promotes wines from sustainable agriculture.

About 1,000 wineries are expected, more than 50% of which are organic or biodynamic or in conversion, and 300 buyers, thanks to the support of ITA-Agency and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the unprecedented contemporaneity with SANA Food, BolognaFiere’s new format on healthy eating away from home.

Numbers, therefore, up compared to the Slow Wine Fair 2024, whose success was decreed by 12,000 visitors, 70% of whom were Horeca operators, distributors and importers, more than 140 international producers and 5,300 labels, representing all Italian regions and 26 countries around the world.

The selection of wineries meets the requirements set out in the Slow Food Manifesto for good, clean and fair wine, the Slow Wine Guide and the assessments of a tasting commission. 

Masterclasses, guided tastings exploring the Italian and international wine scene, and conferences are back. Main theme 2025, the sustainability of the wine supply chain.

More space for Spirits and Mixology, for the first time flanked by ciders, in the area of the 5^th Fiera dell’Amaro d’Italia by Amaroteca and ANADI, while sustainability partners exhibit innovative technologies, plants, equipment and services for the sustainable wine supply chain.

And if the Wine Retail Awards for Terroir and Slow Spirit, assigned every year to the venues that best enhance the wines of the competing categories, is extended to the best selection of bitters, another new entry concerns Specialty Coffee: at BolognaFiere, some of the best roasters of the Slow Food Coffee Coalition international network. 

Slow Wine Fair is a b2b event aimed at Horeca and large-scale retail trade professionals interested in high-quality wines, but on Sunday 23^rd the doors are also open to wine lovers.
